    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Hin Wong Pinnacle is a sturdy granite formation that makes for an easy dive off Koh Tao. We’ve seen blue-spotted rays resting on sandy patches between the rocks and schools of yellowtail barracuda circling. It’s a good spot for newer divers, with depths usually around 10 to 18 metres, offering a relaxed pace to watch the reef residents. Currents are generally mild here.
